Anti-occupation youth fire gunshots as Israelis terrorize civilians

Palestinian anti-occupation gunmen opened fire at an Israeli patrol at daybreak on Friday shortly after the latter rolled into the southern occupied West Bank province of al-Khalil and cracked down on civilians.

According to local sources, an Israeli troop stormed Abu Esneineh neighborhood, in al-Khalil, and ransacked residential alleyways, sparking panic in the area.

An Israeli military spokesman said the gunfire was unleashed while an army patrol was carrying out a search sweep in al-Khalil.

No injuries were reported among Israeli soldiers. The latter have been scouring Palestinian towns in the hunt for anti-occupation young men.
